Movie Reviews

Baltimore Sun - 8/10 by Ann HornadayA big, handsome throwback to star-powered historical costume movies.
New York Daily News - 8/10 by Jami BernardIf you're seeking transcendent love this season, skip the morose "End of the Affair" and go with Anna and the King.
San Francisco Examiner - 8/10 by Walter AddiegoIn the end you feel like you've been taken on a pleasing, professionally run tourist trip that let you enjoy the sights without ever really inhabiting the land.
Film.com - 7/10 by Tom KeoghIt is Foster who presents the biggest single problem, delivering a monochromatic performance that finds her character not much more than flinty and strained.
TV Guide Magazine - 7/10 by Ken FoxThis is a smart and splendidly decorated rethinking of Anna Leonowens's famous chronicle
Dallas Observer - 7/10 by Gregory WeinkaufGrand entertainment in the old-fashioned sense.
Newsweek - 6/10 by David AnsenHollywood rarely mounts these lavish period epics anymore. It's nice to see them try, even if the result is somewhat less than heart-stopping.
Time - 6/10 by Richard SchickelThe problem with Anna and the King is that it's caught halfway between then and now--- the film tries to throw in notions of cultural relativism and big power imperialism, but can't do without corny shtick.
TNT RoughCut - 6/10 by Daysun ChangIt pales in comparison to its two classic predecessors, and also just generally feels like one too many trips to the well.
Entertainment Weekly - 6/10 by Owen GleibermanIt's a painstakingly correct update of what is, let's face it, one of the least culturally correct love stories ever to be mythologized by Hollywood.
